Get a Default Build Tool and Set Its Properties

The following example code shows setFileExtension in a portion of the intel_tc.m file from the Add Custom Toolchains to MATLAB® Coder™ Build Process tutorial.

% ------------------------------
% C Compiler
% ------------------------------
 
tool = tc.getBuildTool('C Compiler');

tool.setName('Intel C Compiler');
tool.setCommand('icl');
tool.setPath('');

tool.setDirective('IncludeSearchPath','-I');
tool.setDirective('PreprocessorDefine','-D');
tool.setDirective('OutputFlag','-Fo');
tool.setDirective('Debug','-Zi');

tool.setFileExtension('Source','.c');
tool.setFileExtension('Header','.h');
tool.setFileExtension('Object','.obj');

tool.setCommandPattern('|>TOOL<| |>TOOL_OPTIONS<| |>OUTPUT_FLAG<||>OUTPUT<|');

Use the setFileExtension Interactively

tc = coder.make.ToolchainInfo;
tool = tc.getBuildTool('C Compiler');
blditm = coder.make.BuildItem('CD','.cd')

bldtm = 

	Macro  : CD
	Value : .cd

tool.addFileExtension('SourceX',blditm)
value = tool.getFileExtension('SourceX')

value  = 

.cd

tool.setFileExtension('SourceX','.ef')
value = tool.getFileExtension('SourceX')

value  = 

.ef
